In the absence of citations or definitions in OneLook references, it is difficult to tell exactly what this means. Superficially, it appears to be used in rather restricted contexts, which raises the question whether it means the same thing as food + fish, food fish, or possibly something else.

Just to be clear, you want the current definition verifying? Mglovesfun (talk) 11:24, 28 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
That's all that I can mean. If other definitions are a better fit with the actual usage, then they would have to be added. Resulting multiple definitions could be deemed redundant so it would be good to make sure there are meaningful differences among any multiple definitions that may fit actual usage. At first glance the typical usages of "foodfish" seem more "technical" than those of "food fish". If the meaning is the same, but the spelling differs by context, that can be shown (and WT:COALMINE would arguably be properly invoked in defense of food fish).

Cited by Mglovesfun, example of the singular added by me for good measure. - -sche (discuss) 20:43, 10 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
